Es Caló de s’Illa, IBIZA

Es Calo de s’illa is a stunning cove north of Ibiza. It’s about 6.5km away from San Joan de Labritja, and also known also as Platja d’en Rencii or S’iilo d’en Rencii or ‘Moon beach’ because of its rocky moon-like landscape — you’ll even discover craters here.

Mostly a gravel rock beach, it has fisherman huts to one side. There’s a small islet with the same name right opposite the cove, close enough to swim to.

BEACHES

A small, yet delightfully untouched beach, this is a place for the local residents to come and rest, relax, and get some quiet nude sunbathing in. The beach is surrounded by large cliffs and pine trees. The seabed is crystal clear, and but it’s mostly gravel, and coarse sand. The beach is quite small, about 40 metres in length, and 40 metres in width, with no facilities.

SHOPPING

THINGS TO DO

Snorkelling is great here, as well as swimming and nude sunbathing. You can also explore the surrounding cliffs and pine woods with a bit of trekking.

ROAD ACCESS

Take the road towards Sant Joan de Labritja, before reaching the town, turn left towards Portinatx, and follow the road for several kilometers. After Cala Xarraca, the turn off is to the left with the signpost Si’llot d’es Rencli. It’s a rugged and windy road to get there.
